We're currently trying to convince our client, that 4 different levels "mandatory" fields in a form are about two too many.
The UI they sketched looks like shit, but they think it's absolutely necessary.
But there was this one customer, where it was so helpful to know he's left handed. So now this is a necessary information /s
And then the logging shows that nobody uses half the fields, but the business won't let you remove any.
